Megan McKenna might be smiling but make no mistake there's other stuff bubbling away on the inside.

The former Celebrity Big Brother star - who recently had to explain why she loses her temper so often and so viciously - has managed to get most of her temper under control on Sunday night's TOWIE, though only just and it appears there's a reason why.

Ex on the Beach star Megan seems to have been tamed by love as she and Pete Wicks defined their relationship on the ITVBe reality series over a romantic dinner.

And it was a very classy affair as Pete leaned in over the dinner to whisper: "I really want to f*** you."

Luckily, Pete pointed out that he didn't mean right there and then in the restaurant in front of their own chef with his sharp knives and hot pans, and so viewers could rest easy.

"Haha!" she cackled in response, adding: "I believe that as well."

And it seemed like the fiery star had already put criticism over her TOWIE debut behind her as she cosied up to her tattooed beau Pete Wicks during filming.

The hot new couple were spotted flirting away as they filmed new scenes on Monday.

Taking Pete's pet pooches for a walk in the park, the couple looked stronger than ever, with the hunk leaning in for a peck on the cheek at one point.

For their dog-walking date, Megan dressed down in coordinating khaki sweats and a green puffy coat.

The loved-up date comes just after Megan's TOWIE debut aired on screen.

Fans were looking forward to the Ex on the Beach star's first appearance on Sunday night but many were left bitterly disappointed.

The Celebrity Big Brother star was slammed for 'acting like she's in a Hollywood movie' during her first scenes on the ITVBe reality show.

Viewers saw her turn up late for a Gatsby-themed party as Pete began to sweat his date had left him hanging.

When she finally turned up and admitted she was nervous to see the others, viewers accused her of reading rehearsed lines, with one tweeting: "Aw nut Megan McKenna has just proved how fake Towie is, those acting skills # TOWIE200."
